1) Using the anthropomorphic table, determine the moment/torque at the shoulder necessary to maintain the arm straight at 30 degrees from vertical. The subject is 80 kg and 2 meters tall.

Remember to apply any masses at their centers of gravity and to decompose the necessary components (the components causing rotation). Pay attention to the table before starting.
